MN/MDRTRIPDC.IOM
string when logically ‘ANDED’ with the IP address, defines the network/subnet
IP address.
The following demonstrates how the subnet mask defines the IP address range.
The MG-SIP use Classless Inter-Domain Routing (CIDR) notation for setting the
subnet masks.
•
255.255.255.255 is 0 bits
(used for an explicit route for a single IP address)
•
255.0.0.0 is 8 bits (used for an A-Class Mask)
•
255.255.0.0 is 16 bits (used for a B-Class Mask)
•
255.255.255.0 is 24 bits (used for a C-Class Mask)
HDLC Address
The HDLC address is assigned to a particular route. HDLC addresses do not have
to be unique and may be assigned to one or more routes.
MAC Address
The MAC address assigned to a given route. For Unicast, this is typically the
MAC address the route is assigned to and is determined by the end device (next-
hop) to which the data is to be sent. However, for Multicast, this is derived as
described previously.
Guaranteed Bandwidth
The guaranteed bandwidth offered to a given route. The route will be guaranteed
a minimum of this amount of bandwidth on the MG-SIP.
Max Bandwidth
The maximum bandwidth allowed for a given route. Any traffic that exceeds the
maximum bandwidth will be silently discarded.
